Tomy made a lot of great games in the 1970s and 1980s, but my all-time favourite is Tomytronic Tron, based on the 1982 Disney movie. Over the years I picked up Scramble (Tomy) and Caveman (Tandy, by Tomy) and eventually noticed they have exactly the same form factor. With a bit of research I found out Scramble also goes by Alien Attack, Astro Blaster, and Rambler (exactly the same gameplay) but there's one more unique game in this unofficial series: Lupin, which has an interesting story as well, somewhat connected with the Cliffhanger laserdisc game. Finally, I have all four games, so here's a video showing them all in action, and I even have a shot at explaining how they work. To support 8-Bit Show And Tell: Become a patron: One-time donation: 2nd channel: This is sort-of a sequel to my earlier video “Mechanical Handheld Zero-Bit Games from the 1970s&q
